I've been dealing with frequent urination for a long time now. In the mornings, I need to go every 10 minutes for about 3 hours. Then around 3 pm, it starts again I feel sudden strong urges with large amounts of urine and my bladder fills up super fast. The pressure feels intense and this lasts 4-5 hours. What could be causing this? Would I need surgery for it?
